Every Wednesday and Friday 2-3 volunteers are needed.
However, if you choose to volunteer we can get you on our calendar for any Wednesday or Friday, no need to volunteer for both every single week.
We meet at FIVE, located in Renaissance Park off of Manufacturers Road, at 10-1030am & head out with the truck around 11am. Depending on the demand at the location we choose that day we can be back to FIVE by 1230-1pm.
Loading and unloading the truck are the only other responsibilities. There is no real heavy lifting involved, ~20lbs at most.
If you feel comfortable, you could even drive the truck!

About AMERICAN LUNCH INC
Location:
200 Manufacturers Road, Suite 101, Chattanooga, TN 37405, US
Mission Statement
We are a non-profit organization commissioned by FIVE and Chuck's Fish serving free soup lunches throughout the Tuscaloosa, Knoxville, Chattanooga & Athens GA communities.
Description
Chatham Morgan founded American Lunch while he was a student at the University of Alabama. During the course Leadership Development through community service, taught by Ellen Potts, Morgan saw the need for a food-based charity that could be mobile in nature. On the theory that many needy people have a problem with transportation, the idea of a non-profit food truck was developed.
"By eliminating the hassle of transportation, we figured we would be able to maximize our outreach potential." Morgan said.
Unlike traditional soup kitchen, the American Lunch truck is not only intended for those in need, but for anyone who can come. Everyone is welcome to enjoy the soup of the day!
